As a military family, I’m always curious to see what others are doing to recognize Veterans Day. My son is just getting to the age where he can start understanding what it means that Daddy is in the military, and I think it helps to do veterans day crafts for preschoolers and other military related activities to help in learning. I collected a list of these fun Veteran’s Day crafts for kids and activities you can do with your children too.

Veteran’s Day Crafts for kids
You can make this patriotic star toddler craft! Always a great one to do as Veterans day crafts for preschoolers.
I really like this idea from Homebound but Hopeful to craft a card saluting our heroes after reading a story.
Try this cute soldier craft I saw on Pinterest. Making and decorating a soldier is a great way to talk about our veterans.
